My kids just finished their first week of public school.
It's a whole new experience for my kids and for me but they are integrating well and seem to like it. They are going to be able to learn Italian and though it's going to be difficult in the first few months I know they will catch on quickly and will be speaking and understanding soon.
On Monday the local school tested them to evaluate their grade level and they all did very well. Chloe got a 9 (10 being the highest here), Derrion got an 8 and Ethan a 7. I was very proud of them. They had their first day of school on Tuesday.
The teachers are all very happy to have them in their classes. They said it will bring new culture to the school and classrooms and esp. to help the other children with their English. Ethan's teacher has only good to say about him.
I'm having to get up at 6:30am to make them breakfast and get them up and give them some devotions before they are off. Both Chloe and Derrion start school at 8:00 and Ethan at 8:30 (He goes to a different school). It will take some time getting used to but I'm sure my body clock will adjust soon enough (theirs too). It has been so difficult to get the kids in bed before 10:00pm and now at 8:30pm they are already in bed.
I'm off to bed soon too....a new week awaits....
